DB Networks, an innovator of database security equipment, today announced the general availability of the ADF-4200, a new generation of data center security appliance, purpose built to protect against advanced database attacks. The ADF-4200 is based on DB Networks Adaptive Database Firewall platform and has been in development for four years. The ADF-4200 provides financial institutions, government agencies, and other data intense enterprises an effective countermeasure against advanced SQL Injection and database Denial of Service (DoS) attacks.

The ADF-4200 Adaptive Database Firewall is a 2013 SC Magazine Readers Choice Award Finalist for Best Database Security Solution. In addition, Info Security Products Guide selected the ADF-4200 as a finalist for their 2013 Global Excellence award in three categories – Database Security, Firewalls, and New Product Launch.

The ADF-4200 initially supports both Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server. It offers highly accurate SQL behavioral analysis-based technology to identify, in real time, any unauthorized SQL traffic on the network. Once installed, the ADF-4200 rapidly learns the specific environment in which it's operating to build its behavioral model. Each SQL statement is then subjected to a thorough lexical analysis and SQL semantic comparison analysis. Any rogue SQL statements are immediately identified and an alarm procedure is invoked.

The ADF-4200 is easy to set up and can be deployed with no changes to existing applications or databases. Flexible deployment models include passive monitoring and in-line proxy.

“We're opening up a new era in database security with the ADF-4200 and I'm very excited with the response we've received from customers,” said Brett Helm, CEO of DB Networks. “We developed the ADF-4200 to address the advanced threats to database security that have vexed IT for many years”.

The ADF-4200 is priced at $100,000 USD and available immediately from DB Networks and from our federal government partner ACES (GSA Contract: GS-35F-0598S).

For a demonstration of DB Networks ADF-4200 Adaptive Database Firewall and the opportunity to meet with members of our team, we invite you to visit us at RSA, Moscone Center, San Francisco, Feb 25 - Mar 1, booth # 3220.
